Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 33 This thing of yours is fake!

"Little brother, please help me see the quality of this porcelain from the sea. Should I buy it?"

Lin Ran looked at it from a distance and couldn't really tell what was wrong with this porcelain from the sea, but his intuition told him that the porcelain from the sea in the late Ming Dynasty should not be so well preserved.

So I took the Hai Lao porcelain from Fang Dahai's hands and looked at it carefully. I found that this Hai Lao porcelain was indeed very well made.

There are two types of real sea-dried porcelain.

The first type is buried by the sand in the sea, and the second type is porcelain that is well packaged in the container. The second type of porcelain can be renewed by simply cleaning it, so the price is not too high.

The most important thing is the first type of porcelain because it was knocked out, scattered on the seabed, and attached to organisms.

After this kind of porcelain is immersed in seawater corrosion for a long time, it will cause the residue of different seabed organisms and traces of seawater erosion on the surface.

This is what makes Hai Lao Porcelain special. The Hai Lao Porcelain in front of me is indeed very sophisticated in this regard. If it weren't for my many years of experience, I would have been easily deceived.

But after careful screening, Lin Ran touched the shells on it, and took a closer look, and then he was sure that the porcelain from the sea in his hand was indeed fake!

The manufacturing process of this kind of fakes in later generations is still relatively simple. That is to put the porcelain into a net, weigh it into sea water, and then soak it for several months to form such a pattern.

Moreover, in order to ensure that there is not much difference between the porcelain fished from the sea and the real ones, these counterfeiters often sprinkle some bait on the water to attract fish and shells in the sea to attach to the porcelain and excrete it.

It takes almost half a year of immersion and seawater impact polishing to form this kind of sea-dried porcelain, but this kind of sea-dried porcelain is also somewhat different.

You can easily distinguish them by just observing the colors of the shells here, but the color of the shells is often something that most people easily overlook.

I am an expert in this aspect. Due to the limitations of the era's knowledge, maybe Fang Dahai and others cannot see the clues, but for me, it is just a little trick.

Lin Ran immediately put down the porcelain from the sea. Fang Dahai also realized that something was wrong and looked at Lin Ran and asked nervously.

"What do you think of Brother Lin? What is this porcelain from the sea? Should I buy it?"

In fact, Fang Dahai just looked at it for a long time and couldn't see anything wrong with this Haifa porcelain. He explored a few points and found that it was the same as the real Haifa porcelain he had observed before, so he was a little moved.

As long as Lin Ran gives him a positive answer, he will definitely buy it immediately.

"Brother Fang, although the quality of this Hai Lao porcelain is really good, I think it should be carefully considered. After all, this Hai Lao porcelain is worth a lot of money, so you can't decide to buy it easily."

"I always feel that this tone is somewhat inappropriate."

"It would be bad if you can't eat it after buying it back."

The meaning of Lin Ran's words was obvious, and he pointed out in a subtle way that there were some problems with this porcelain from the sea.

Fang Dahai felt a little sleepy or he had just watched it for a long time, but he didn't see anything wrong with this piece of porcelain from the sea, and he didn't know what Lin Ran had discovered.

However, Fang Dahai was quite convinced by Lin Ran's words.

If you buy it by yourself rashly, your losses will be small, and you will lose more than you gain by ruining your brand several times!

With this thought in mind, Fang Dahai directly put the porcelain from the sea directly back on the table, with a bit of confusion flashing across his face.

Seeing this kid talking nonsense here, Wu Laoliu couldn't bear it anymore.

"You're just a young boy working hard in front of me. Who do you think I am? Go out and find out what kind of store our Rongbaozhai is. How can we sell fakes?"

"If you spread this word, how can we do business in the future?"

Wu Laoliu didn't care about Lin Ran's face at all. He didn't have a good impression of Lin Ran at first, but now he felt even more angry when he heard that Lin Ran was trying to undermine him.

After all, it was hard for me to find a buyer who could afford the price. If because of Lin Ran's troubles, I was both disqualified, it would be a big loss!

Seeing the conflict between the two people over such a thing, Fang Dahai couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth to dissuade them.

"Brother Six, you don't have to be so angry. This little brother of mine just said it casually, but this little brother of mine is talented in antiques."

"I still want to hear how he figured out there was something wrong with this porcelain from the sea."

Wu Laoliu sneered and looked at Lin Ran with a mocking look.

"I want to hear what you can come up with. If you can't come up with something ugly, don't blame me, a senior, for being unreasonable!"

"I have opened a shop here for such a long time, but I have never seen anyone commenting on the items in our shop like this. Isn't this just a big joke for us?"

When Lin Ran heard this, he nodded calmly.

"Since I want to hear it, I, as a younger brother, have to be humble. If what I said is wrong, please correct me!"

Wu Laoliu snorted coldly and did not speak again. He stared at Lin Ran with dissatisfaction.

Lin Ran picked up the porcelain from the sea, pointed to the shells behind it, and started to explain.

"Real sea-caught porcelain has been soaked in seawater for a long time, so some fish and shells will adhere to it, thus forming petrification."

"This porcelain from the sea, although it is said that there are such things on it, and it has even been corroded by sea water, and there are traces of the impact of sea water on it, but it is not porcelain from the sea."

"The fish and shellfish on this porcelain from the sea look very new, and they feel a little moist to the touch."

"Looking carefully, I found that the shells attached inside are very bright in color."

"I want to ask you, if the porcelain had been soaked in cold water for thousands of years, would the color of the shells on it be so bright?"

"If an ordinary person uses this method to see the tiny difference with his own eyes, it is not easy. This is why most people will be deceived in Hailuo porcelain."

"The most important thing is that most of the kiln soil in the late Ming Dynasty is rich in iron. If it were real porcelain from the sea, no matter how well-preserved it is after thousands of years, it would definitely not be this color!"
